AACE Region 2 Northeast Symposium: Elevating project management standards with Aegis
Senior Director of Dispute Resolution Amin Azizi and Senior Consultants of Dispute Resolution Christina Waltz and Katherine Baron shared best practices for providing better risk protection for contractors, owners, and partners yesterday at the AACE Region 2 Northeast Symposium. Drawing on Aegis’s best-in-class approach to construction dispute resolutions, Azizi and Waltz’s session provided valuable insights into transforming complex Gantt charts into compelling narratives, offering attendees innovative approaches to data visualization. In a later session, Azizi and Baron explored strategies for developing thoughtful and more technically rigorous time impact analyses (TIA), fostering deeper comprehension within teams. Their presentations empowered attendees with practical tools to enhance project management practices, aligning with Aegis’s aim to provide better risk protection for contractors, owners, and partners.
In their presentation, “You can’t always Gantt what you want,” Azizi and Waltz shed light on Aegis’s expertise in packaging Gantt charts into simplistic and digestible information. Focusing on enhancing visual representation, they demonstrated how Aegis surpasses standard methods, ensuring that complex data is understandable and facilitates expedited decision-making through increased transparency. They highlighted how Aegis’s innovative strategies yield better outcomes for clients and drive project success. Attendees gained valuable insights into how Aegis elevates standards for data presentation, equipping them with the tools to effectively communicate insights from the project level through dispute tribunals.
In Azizi and Baron’s session, “When life gives you delays, make TIA lemonade,” attendees gained valuable insights into Aegis’s rigorous methodologies when navigating TIAs. The presentation addressed common challenges encountered during TIAs and provided guidance on managing the intricacies of what’s happening beyond the sole identification of the delays. During their presentation, attendees learned how Aegis’s methodology transforms TIAs from isolated analyses into powerful tools that help navigate delays and turn them into opportunities for informed decision-making.
Integrating Gantt chart data visualization and a more rigorous approach to the TIA standard into our methodology redefines traditional dispute resolution practices, offering enhanced risk protection for owners, contractors, and partners. Through innovative strategies and a commitment to excellence, Aegis pioneers a new era of dispute resolution tailored to the complexities of the construction industry.
